Because I can. Have you heard it? Probably not

I have tried 10mm, 8mm and 6mm basic copper wire, yes. I didn't put plugs on though.
No need to get the hump, Andrew. Just didn't understand the logic of going 'balls out' on spades when the copper going into them is bog standard.
The point Lawrence made about size made sense. That's all.

Oli,
I've not got the hump, just straight talking. I've found girth works best in my system. The "balls" out aspect is simply to stop me from having to piss about experimenting. The copper and WBT pairing were a lateral thinking experiment which worked out. Yes I know that sounds contradictory. Everything else in the wiring loom is silver, even the caps have silver legs in the pre and power amps. For some reason several meters of wide girth copper fitted to WBT silver binding posts and spades works very well.
Regards

Thanks Lawrence,
It wasn't clear from the photo whether the cables were shielded or not. Whilst I'm not a believer in cable lifters, or having speaker cable not running on the floor (to minimise mechanical vibration interference), the use of a "thick rubbery surround" certainly won't do any harm (provided you don't mind your speaker cables looking like hosepipes. ).
